Do you know Jim Woodring's art? http://www.jimwoodring.com/ He does all sorts of stuff, and has a similar sort of feel to it, like his character's live in a world of dreams... Also, I think your sculpted pieces are interesting. I quite like the lack of Symmetry, and their roughness...and think something like them about 2 or 3 feet high made of more course clay (Grogzilla or Sculpture Raku)or colored concrete would be fetching. Also the back of the head having a design is interesting, and makes me curious about the entire piece. Making the Jump to 3-D is hard...I think you should take it further. Cool stuff!
